Key Takeaways

Assess Your Financials

Evaluate your finances to determine what you can realistically afford—not just for mortgage payments but also for upfront costs and ongoing home maintenance. Plan for extra expenses in your budget to avoid financial strain.

Work With a Trusted Team

Buying a home is one of the biggest financial decisions you’ll make, so having the right team is essential. A financial advisor, loan officer, and real estate agent can help you set a realistic budget, get pre-approved early, explore lending options, and make competitive offers. Ask for referrals from trusted sources, and don’t hesitate to seek a second opinion.

Think Long-Term

The housing market fluctuates, but buying with a long-term perspective and a solid financial plan can help you build equity over time.
